Summary:	"This book compares the "obstacles" to prayer discussed by the 4th-century monk Evagrius of Pontus with similar "hindrances" found in the scriptures of Buddhist tradition. Offering a fresh approach to Buddhist-Christian dialogue, Geiman focuses on the difficulties faced, and tools used, by both communities in their forms of contemplative practice"--
